“A 5 kg block is on a 30° inclined plane. A force of 10 N is applied upwards along the plane. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is 0.2, calculate the force of friction acting on the block. A 2 kg object rests on a 45° inclined plane. A force of 5 N is applied downwards at an angle of 20° relative to the plane. If the coefficient of static friction between the object and the plane is 0.3, calculate the force of friction acting on the block.”
